Jade was not worried about civilians' safety as her gallery is situated slightly outskirt from the city and is mostly surrounded by nature rather than buildings, hence if anything major were to happened, at least innocent lives would not be collateral damage. The meeting with Lee Han Ping is in two hours. She has been fiddling with all the safety buttons in the gallery to ensure it is functioning. She had given the guards precise details and instructions. She sent a message to Derek's ground men regarding tonight's meeting.

Derek who was waiting to make a move in two hours time, had just received a message from Jade. His heart started to beat uncomfortably. He took a deep breath and calm his chaotic heart. He need to believe in her and her ability. He trusts his father would protect her as well. Not only that, his guards are there as well. Wifey, hubby really misses you. These days apart really tearing me into pieces, I can't sleep without worrying about your safety. I can't eat without knowing if you are eating well. All I want is I to hold you in my arms, feel your breath on my skin, hear the beating of your heart, only then this heart of mine can be at ease.

"Whenever I'm weary

From the battles that rage in my head

You make sense of madness

When my sanity hangs by a thread

I lose my way but still you seem to understand

Now and forever

I will be your man"

Suddenly the song by Richard Marx popped in his head, somehow, the song soothe his anxiety. I must sing this song to wife when I meet her. Must think of something to look forward to in order to get over this. I promised her I'll stay alive and I will do my very best. Getting back his focus, he gathered his men for a quick duty report and updates. His men were unable to detect the raw emotions he went through awhile ago because he concealed it well.

The head clans and their men had all arrived at Heather's lair. They had to come, they do not want to provoke this crazy woman plus they wanted to see what she is demanding from them. They trotted in one by one, putting a smile on Heather's beautiful face. She was wearing a leather tight body suit accentuating all her glorious curves. For the purpose of the laser show and her blackmail plans, she had setup huge screen everywhere. In another 60 minutes, her show shall begin. She rubbed her hands gleefully.

Jade stared at the ticking clock, another 30 minutes to go for her, Derek and Heather. This is it, the countdown for the showdown. Hubby stay safe, that is all I'm asking. Father Lee could not help but admire his daughter in law, calm and composed, ice cold face, but beneath it all, she has a good heart, she does not provoke anyone as long as they do not harm her or her family. She understood in this world, either you eat or be eaten. She knows exactly when to retreat and when to surge forward. His son is sure lucky. Yu Ling, I have no regrets now, our son, he has found someone worthy, his soul mate, the way you belong to me and me to you. If anything were to happen tonight to me, I am no longer ashamed to meet you. I am finally at ease because of this woman right in front of me, if you were still around, you and her would hit it off. She treats our son well and is filial. Yu Ling, I have been missing you for far too long.


Lee Han Ping arrived at the gallery exactly on time, not a second early and not a second 6 late.

"Impressive, Uncle in law, your sense of time is impeccable. Welcome to this humble one gallery. Shall we?" Jade gesture for him to enter.

"Of course my sense of time is superb. Just lead the way." He said. He initially wanted to curse at her but decided not to, soon, they will all die together tonight and he will certainly make sure of him. He let out a low chuckle. Once seated in the conference room, he stared at the calm Father Lee.

"Han Ting, one really didn't know what luck you possessed that things kept getting you way. Let me tell you one thing, your luck will run out today. I hated you, hated your existence. Maybe if you didn't exist then she'll be mine." Lee Han Ping said filled with anguish and anger.

"Fate is mysterious thing, if I don't exist, most probably, she won't either. Our fate has been written since we were born. It is my fate to suffer loneliness for years. The many years since she was gone, I suffered greatly. I almost lost my will to live, if it weren't for my promise to take care of the brat. You have punished us enough. Can't you let go of the hatred?" Father Lee asked earnestly.

"Let go??!!! Tonight, I will make sure that all of us will meet King Yama together. You may have suffered but not as much as me! Since, you were on the subject of fate. Let me tell you, the moment I was born, I was fated to hate you. Since, all of us is dying tonight, let me be honest! At one point, I looked up to you but you, Father and Mother never really cared about me. Do you know, I was jealous each time I see a big brother holding a younger brother's hand when crossing the road? I never had the chance to experience the warmth. Grandparents also doted on you. You!!!! You stole everyone's attention. Why did they bother having me?? Why??? Why??? " he cried in anguish.

Jade who hated the man to the core, felt sorry for him. How could their fate be so similar? If it wasn't for Mama Lu, would she have ended like this? Full with hatred and hostility?
